Long ago the 5 Gods lived together in harmony, everything changed when Armada started to dominate. Only PPMD, master of all things smash could stop him. But when the world needed him most he vanished.
The Five Gods all embody different parts of Smash Armada: He is the best melee player and a much better villain to Mang0 then Leffen. Mew2King: He is the best Smash player having 2 (or 3) eras, as well as being best at Brawl, Project M, a God of Melee, and a notable Sm4sh player. Mang0: He is the hero of Smash Melee with an enormous fan base and pompous "I'm the best" attitude he embodies crazy impractical play and sheer will power. PPMD: He is the "Avatar" of Smash Melee. The only other person besides Mang0 to be able to really beat Armada. He, "brings balance" to the other 4 Gods. (We miss you PP) HungryBox: HBox illustrates how far a "casual" player can go. Always (until just recently) he has put Melee in its place studying and working hard to make sure he has other solid job options, but now with EVO he shows why he went full-time.
Also I should add that I feel Hbox is also contender for beating armada considering he's the one that made armada develop a young link and alongside leffen was why he developed a fox after his young link started to run dry.
you mean if you don't understand that then you're not a part of this community? you just made the statement more confusing, good ol diss track references never get old
Not yet, a 2013-2014 Mag0 is comparable so far. This is the year that will determine it. Remember that GOML 2016 he did not do very well and TBH 6 was not as long ago as it seems and mang0 won that.
^ Never underestimate the irrational nonsense spouted by brainless "Mango sucks lol" bandwagoners. Armada hasn't come anywhere close to Ken's dominance.
Ezana Solomon I think he's not as popular because everyone just assumes he's probably going to win there's like no surprise. Whereas like mang0 or m2k can lose at any time
In the city of Helsingborg, a city in the more southern parts of Sweden, I was 2 years back partying on new years eve with my friends. I enter the restroom of a nightclub we've been hanging out at for a couple of hours when I see Armada looking into the mirror while washing his hands. He was humbled that we recognized him and tagged along with us the following hours. This man is so kind, and it made me so happy to see. Thought it'd be a funny anecdote to share :) And I hope things go well for him in the future of smash bros!
Seriously man. His anxiety gives me anxiety @.@ Calm down bro and be confident when you introduce yourself all good! Tafo looks like he's gonna have a heart attack lol
and put on something that isn't a wadded up dirty hoodie that looks like it was laying in the corner of his apartment for 2 weeks. you're working for yahoo now tafo, atleast wear a polo! haha
Agreed he could have dressed better, but he works full time for JPL and has nothing to prove... Yahoo sports or not, he does work for smash for fun and the love of the game
I think the melee community needs to move away from the labels of the "5 Gods". With the time away ppmd has taken, how long it's been since mew2king has won a major and armada winning everything it doesn't make sense anymore.
M2k may not be winning majors but he is always in top 8 and regularly makes it finals. He and S2J were the only people to challenge armada at genesis 4. Hes definitely a GOD. And the GOD title is eternal. Hence why leffen isnt considered a GOD even though he is on their level. The GOD era passed. Its like saying we shouldnt call dwayne johnson "the rock" anymore because he doesnt wrestle. Yes that he doesnt wrestle anymore but the rock is eternally with him.
I'm not debating whether or not M2K is a God. However, the foundation of the label was rooted in tournament wins. Tafokints calls Leffen a GOD in this very video 3:34 because he is winning: Big 6. I know the community enjoys stories and drama but the term 'God' is supremely outdated, especially for new players who are learning about the scene. Let's do something new.
Most of the community reffers to leffen as the god slayer. They even had a tourney for the gods titled "Battle of the 5 Gods". Even if god is outdated, its part of smash's legacy. Its a part that actually grew the community and got people to watch melee who dont even play. It would be ridiculous to do away with the god complex. It makes it that much more hype when they drop sets to non gods.
It's more about legacy than anything else. You're right, with PPMD out of the picture for now, he shouldn't be a God anymore. But he is, and he will forever be one. Hell, he can come back and never place top 8 again, but he will still be a God. Just like Ken is still the King of Smash despite not winning anything in recent times. And now with the community being so large, people won't simply move away from this. It's safe to assume that if all six retired at the same time, people would just call the next group the New Gods or something.
Honestly, though I don't agree that Armada is the only God nowadays, I don't understand the argument that we're no longer in an era of five Gods: Literally the only person to win a particularly large tournament outside of one of the Gods has been Leffen. Otherwise a God wins, every time. Maybe it's Armada. Maybe it's HBox. Maybe it's gonna be PPMD if he makes a return this year. I get that the title is more of a legacy thing than a "this player is ten times better than almost every non-God" thing. But is it safe to say that we're still in an era of Gods and a few Godslayers?
I'm a Smash 4 player, and pay very very sparse attention to the budding point of Melee. And I watch this series every time since I subbed. But one thing I'd recommend is, try and work on your confidence in speech. You have the passion, the knowledge, and the theories that are top notch. But it feels like you're a little nervous. You're doing great, and I hope you know that.
Am I the only one upset at how little recognition PPMD got in this video? He completely outplays Armada when he's up for it. And he destroyed Armada 3-0 at Apex 2015, and won Apex 2014 against Armada.
LMAO These comments look so fucking hilarious now. All this hype over such a short time period. Christ, the community loves to exaggerate. Glad that things have evened out more now with Hbox being arguably better while M2K, Plup, Leffen and Mang0 have taken notable wins. People really need to cut the short attention span and let things run completely first before they start making all these bold and outlandish claims. Armada is NOT the only god and he NEVER will be. Just stop.
Ziplile if you watch Ken back then he wasn't even very technical. Only thing he did that worked because of undeveloped meta was Ken Combo DI wasn't was good. He is just a very smart player and had better understanding than most players.
Tony Abbott go watch kens matches, he knew his tech fairly well actually. On Ken vs Azen back in the mlg days, he ledge tech like crazy, I don't see that tech used that often today
I get that. Like I said I love my dude taffy he's like 30% of the reason we are even here.. He just isn't oratorical enough to host a talk show is all.
tbh I think Toph would be better as an all in one package of knowledge and charisma. Or Blur with Tafo writing the script for what he says. Tafo doesn't have charisma
So we're in 2022 now, and how do you guys members of the Melee community speak about him ? (Real question, I have no idea, I am not a Melee player myself but interested in great champions whatever the game/sport is).
I reckon Ken is the most legendary right now, at least. He has the title 'King of Smash', and no other player owns a move like Ken owns Dancing Blade. Whenever anyone uses it the commentators scream "KEN!! KEN ARE YOU WATCHING??" I love it.
It's a shame Armada is such a nice guy, he would have made for an excellent villain. Imagine an alternate universe where Armada and Leffen's results are switched.
By many definitions that I hear as far as dominance and consistency goes, he's the only god by the stats. Interestingly, one of the things that defines gods is the ability to beat Armada, no one outside of the 5 after Armada has been able to beat Armada, although if Shroomed keeps playing the way he has been he actually has a chance.
At this point Armada should be considered the Zeus of the Gods or he should be given a whole new title. You can't take away the title God from the others. Ken still retains "King of Smash" despite the fact that he probably isn't even considered a top 200 player anymore.
Armada is fantastic, but how can you say he was flawless? If Leffen, HBox, or Mango were at the tournament, he had trouble winning let alone make 2nd if 2 or all of them were there. He lost to Mango at Battle of the 5 Gods, GOML, WTF2, and BH6 and especially spanked him with Marth. He lost to Leffen at some tourney before Beast 6 and GOML. He lost to Hbox at Battle of the 5 Gods and EVO (and something else I believe but can't remember). He didn't attend Pound or EGLX (though he was sick for that one). He wasn't at SSC or Shine, and later on Mango was using Falco as an experiment of sorts. Lastly, PP, is his kryptonite. Again, Armada's fantastic, but to say he's far above everyone else when he was pretty much tied in sets with HBox and Leffen and was losing in sets to Mango (by 4 I believe) is too much. He didn't do that well. 2015? sure make that call? not 2016 though.
To me, the name god is given to those who can win majors. and all 5 (including leffen) Have been able to do that these past years. The demi-gods are getting close but none of them have won a major yet. Plup so far is the closest with armada being the only god he needs to beat left.
To be honest, I don't think a Melee player can play this game for longer than an athlete can play any other sport. I really worry that carpal tunnel is going to limit the length of all the Melee gods' careers to a decade or two at most.
2:11 "You can read about it. I'm not going to list it out." Why not? There are lists at 0:11, 0:53, 1:33, 1:44. If the viewer has enjoyed the video up until this point, why not continue in the same fashion?
I don't care for arbitrary tags, but if the point of labeling him as the only god is to say that he's a level above the rest, then yeah, that's undoubtedly true.
2011) Number 1 in the world 2012) Number 1 in the world 2013) Retires, still number 2 2014) Returns from retirement, still number 2 2015) Number 1 in the world 2016) Number 1 in the world I don't think Armada is the only God, in terms of legacy I do think him and Mango are definitely ahead in their upper tier however, of which Armada sits on the throne.
Idk debatably m2k losing to s2j would be huge cuz m2k doesn't lose to falcon. I'd say m2k is, THE god. Think about it, m2k is the master of the marth ditto, master at the sheik ditto, and master of the falcon match up. Aswell he controls FD, he usually gets one game on FD free. And known as the spacies slayer. He has the best marth and best sheik to date. I'd say m2k is the God.
It makes me laugh when people say ppmd has a better marth than m2k. M2k still has a very postitive record vs ppmd in the marth ditto. And is the most graceful marth when it comes to chaingrabs, combos, and he's even giving armada a run for his money as of lately. I think what made ppmds marth good was ppmds fundamentals, not marth itself.
Long ago the 5 Gods lived together in harmony, everything changed when Armada started to dominate. Only PPMD, master of all things smash could stop him. But when the world needed him most he vanished.

It's the 'Avatar: The last airbender' intro.
Just clearing it up.
It feels like 100 years since PP has been around tbh
Everything changed when the Armada nation attacked
PPMD WE MISS YOU
The Five Gods all embody different parts of Smash
Armada: He is the best melee player and a much better villain to Mang0 then Leffen.
Mew2King: He is the best Smash player having 2 (or 3) eras, as well as being best at Brawl, Project M, a God of Melee, and a notable Sm4sh player.
Mang0: He is the hero of Smash Melee with an enormous fan base and pompous "I'm the best" attitude he embodies crazy impractical play and sheer will power.
PPMD: He is the "Avatar" of Smash Melee. The only other person besides Mang0 to be able to really beat Armada. He, "brings balance" to the other 4 Gods. (We miss you PP)
HungryBox: HBox illustrates how far a "casual" player can go. Always (until just recently) he has put Melee in its place studying and working hard to make sure he has other solid job options, but now with EVO he shows why he went full-time.
Spot on!
BriLife avatar of smash sounds amazing.
Also I should add that I feel Hbox is also contender for beating armada considering he's the one that made armada develop a young link and alongside leffen was why he developed a fox after his young link started to run dry.
BriLife he is the avatar? Dude, I love you.
The Alchemist League ;)
its not that hes the only god. its that hes the god of gods. this nigga zues
Zeus is directly challenged by other gods, who always lose. He's stronger than the rest of them but none of them worship him.
hes a titan man
Zeus beat the titans. They are his bitches.
boy how the fuck you spell zeus wrong
Jordan Wong lol didnt even notice
Android is my brudder
I think this video is preddy gud
Ehh I think this meme are very not preddy gud
Octavio Velazquez Fack you, Yason
I'm fram Sweden.
Omuk I'm actually Swedish. Seriously.
Armada is a fucking legend.
Hello everybody, This is Tafokints?
why was he unsure of his own name?
He seemed like he stopped and had to think about it for a second, like wait, what's my tag again?
he always seems unsure about how to introduce himself lol
I'm Ron Burgundy...?
maybe he was wondering weather or not to say his real name or just tafokints. lol idk
Tafo looks like he rolled outta bed and made this video lol
Doesn't he kinda always look like that? I think it's fuckin' great.
he's not one of the gods he's one of the god awful
ElliottFox ?????
Got2LoveLife if you dont understand that your not a part of this community, or your brand new.
you mean if you don't understand that then you're not a part of this community? you just made the statement more confusing, good ol diss track references never get old
MystifiedFlash lol i fixed it
But I didn't get gimped just looking at his Fox.
Next episode: _Is Hungrybox the only god?_
Armada really has separated himself from the rest at this point. He's so damn consistent
Not yet, a 2013-2014 Mag0 is comparable so far. This is the year that will determine it. Remember that GOML 2016 he did not do very well and TBH 6 was not as long ago as it seems and mang0 won that.
+Urameshi Sama 2013-2014 mango is definitely not comparable lmfao can't believe there are people this delusional
Thomas Buchovecky but Ken tho
^ Never underestimate the irrational nonsense spouted by brainless "Mango sucks lol" bandwagoners. Armada hasn't come anywhere close to Ken's dominance.
Andrew Ricklefs He is more dominant than Ken was.
Abate is the only god, sit down tafo

Armada is my favorite player of all time. Hes so underloved just because he plays safe,optimal, and hes European.
Ezana Solomon I think he's not as popular because everyone just assumes he's probably going to win there's like no surprise. Whereas like mang0 or m2k can lose at any time
Tony Abbott still it's impressive to see how far hes getting playing 85 % peach
so exciting to see the same guy winning over and over again by playing as always I want too see new things, optimal = boring
ferreroman I dont think he plays very boring, its just his character isnt very appealing to most players.
Ezana Solomon Mango vs Armada is always very intense to watch and that Ive got to be thankful for that
Armada is basically The One Above All
Mango th GOAT and Armada the TOAA? sounds nice
I wanted to improve TOAA to somehow make an acronym for TORIYAH, but I couldn't.
and modern marvel comics are basically cancer

Yes. Christianity says there's only one God.

And I hope things go well for him in the future of smash bros!
Tafo you gotta calm down man, you're doing perfectly fine in the rest of these videos but here you looked like you were about to faint.
Seriously man. His anxiety gives me anxiety @.@
Calm down bro and be confident when you introduce yourself all good! Tafo looks like he's gonna have a heart attack lol
Great video! You've also gotten much better at this!
tafo needs to stand up straight.
Maybe its a bad habit, I tend to slouch without even noticing a lot.
and put on something that isn't a wadded up dirty hoodie that looks like it was laying in the corner of his apartment for 2 weeks. you're working for yahoo now tafo, atleast wear a polo! haha
Agreed he could have dressed better, but he works full time for JPL and has nothing to prove... Yahoo sports or not, he does work for smash for fun and the love of the game
angel lopez very odd individual.
The themes for the Melee Science videos are the best, great work Tafo!
I think the melee community needs to move away from the labels of the "5 Gods". With the time away ppmd has taken, how long it's been since mew2king has won a major and armada winning everything it doesn't make sense anymore.
m2k won Shine 2016 over Mang0 and hbox, that was a great win
M2k may not be winning majors but he is always in top 8 and regularly makes it finals. He and S2J were the only people to challenge armada at genesis 4. Hes definitely a GOD. And the GOD title is eternal. Hence why leffen isnt considered a GOD even though he is on their level. The GOD era passed.

Dude sounds like he's not sure if he's actually Tafokints
Ken is the king, armada is the god king, leffen is the god slayer, and mew2king, ppmd, mang0, and hungrybox are the regular gods.
Ken Era ------>Three Beasts Era (M2k,KDJ,PC)--->Five Gods Era- - > Armada Era?- - - > End of smash?
Ken Era -> Three Kings Era -> Five Gods Era -> Armada Era -> 20XX -> 666XX
***** -> Era of the Savior of Melee
Honestly, though I don't agree that Armada is the only God nowadays, I don't understand the argument that we're no longer in an era of five Gods:
Literally the only person to win a particularly large tournament outside of one of the Gods has been Leffen. Otherwise a God wins, every time. Maybe it's Armada. Maybe it's HBox. Maybe it's gonna be PPMD if he makes a return this year.

Just stop.
The fact that armada has never lost to someone outside the big 6 whereas the others have cements armada as the only God of melee
That didn't age well.
m2k can beat armada this year, i know he can
Pyromanteion hahahahah
Canada Cup 2017

This aged well
@@TenThousandTacos lol
S2J IS A LEGEND!!!
music's a little loud imho
Ken was more a god than leffen is today.
Federico Garcia Ho armada dominates when the level is fucking insane, ken dominates when the meta was a little baby
Ziplile Ken dominated from 2003 to 2007. Do you really think nobody adjusted to his play for over 4 years?
TheCrustiCroc yeah but adjustments where like countering lasers because the other player was too sgresive and for some reason it worked
Ziplile if you watch Ken back then he wasn't even very technical. Only thing he did that worked because of undeveloped meta was Ken Combo DI wasn't was good. He is just a very smart player and had better understanding than most players.
Tony Abbott go watch kens matches, he knew his tech fairly well actually. On Ken vs Azen back in the mlg days, he ledge tech like crazy, I don't see that tech used that often today

How did Tafo get this gig? I love you bro but u dont dictate for shit.
The Stack Don't hate on the man he's done so much for the community
I get that. Like I said I love my dude taffy he's like 30% of the reason we are even here.. He just isn't oratorical enough to host a talk show is all.
Truth, Tafo is important to smash but he aint good as the face of melee
Not saying he can't be either! He's just out of his element. I'm sure he never anticipated being a host of a show made by "Yahoo eSports" lol!
tbh I think Toph would be better as an all in one package of knowledge and charisma. Or Blur with Tafo writing the script for what he says. Tafo doesn't have charisma
we should invite kesha to genesis 6 cuz its like a G6
Kit Schulz wasn't even Kesha who did that song lol
Max Li she did a remix of it
Fair enough.
I know that I am the one who posted the statistics on who game 5'd Armada, but Remen at Berlin Calling did it, and Calle W took it to Game 7 at SWS.
that alternate camera angle from the left side will not be necessary for your future videos.
Correction: All FOUR Smash Summits Now
God damn Armada smiles once in a while!? I thought he and M2K were smile-less
We also have to wait to see what hax $ and ppmd can do when they come back.
4:56 no johns.
Y'all forgot the first commandment: thou shalt not sleep on the kid
So we're in 2022 now, and how do you guys members of the Melee community speak about him ?
(Real question, I have no idea, I am not a Melee player myself but interested in great champions whatever the game/sport is).
I reckon Ken is the most legendary right now, at least. He has the title 'King of Smash', and no other player owns a move like Ken owns Dancing Blade. Whenever anyone uses it the commentators scream "KEN!! KEN ARE YOU WATCHING??" I love it.
RiN So apparently a God is lower then a king.
in skill base god is better but in legend ken wins
Yeah... I only meant most legendary, not most skilled or advanced player.
Daniel did you just wake up? Comb your hair my man! Lol otherwise great work on these segments, they are very enjoyable
Tafo has the best analysis of any melee player by far.
Is Armada ascending?
His only weakness? A controller that isn't broken... apparently
"You know?" - Tafokints 2017
That's a Leffen sweater right there
For players of all Smashes, M2K is the true Jack of all Gods
I think in terms of the melee pantheon, M2K, PPMD, Leffen, Hbox, and Mango are also gods but Armada's straight up Zeus
if armada wins every 2017 major i think he is officially the only god
Anyone know the background music?
The answer is simply, "Yes".
BlackineseKing seriously why couldnt HBox make this video and just say yes
It's a shame Armada is such a nice guy, he would have made for an excellent villain. Imagine an alternate universe where Armada and Leffen's results are switched.
Gonna go practice some kirby tech so I can be the next melee god
Armada's Watching this thinking "Hell yeah I'm the only god."
Mang0 is looking at Armada saying "Your ego shall not be bigger than mine."
Isn't Tafo Mango's coach?
You think Phil Jackson would have ever publicly said Bill Russell was the GOAT back in 1997?
By many definitions that I hear as far as dominance and consistency goes, he's the only god by the stats. Interestingly, one of the things that defines gods is the ability to beat Armada, no one outside of the 5 after Armada has been able to beat Armada, although if Shroomed keeps playing the way he has been he actually has a chance.
no one mentioned luffen
amsa is amazing.
Talking about Armada in Melee in the year 2030? That's a little optimistic.
Armada is my 2nd favorite...
PPMD is my top, easily... Crisp combos, smooth movement... can't beat it...
he is above the gods he left his place to leffen when he transcended sorry for the english
>Wins Smash Summit 4
The prophecy has begun.
lol i remember watching this video back in 2017. if only we knew armada would go on to win the next 8 summits, 8 genesis, and 8 EVOs.
isn't it obvious? we have entered the age of titans.
At this point Armada should be considered the Zeus of the Gods or he should be given a whole new title. You can't take away the title God from the others. Ken still retains "King of Smash" despite the fact that he probably isn't even considered a top 200 player anymore.
Does Tafokints not know which camera he should be looking at? Is it supposed to be like that?
Armada is fantastic, but how can you say he was flawless? If Leffen, HBox, or Mango were at the tournament, he had trouble winning let alone make 2nd if 2 or all of them were there. He lost to Mango at Battle of the 5 Gods, GOML, WTF2, and BH6 and especially spanked him with Marth. He lost to Leffen at some tourney before Beast 6 and GOML. He lost to Hbox at Battle of the 5 Gods and EVO (and something else I believe but can't remember). He didn't attend Pound or EGLX (though he was sick for that one). He wasn't at SSC or Shine, and later on Mango was using Falco as an experiment of sorts. Lastly, PP, is his kryptonite.
Again, Armada's fantastic, but to say he's far above everyone else when he was pretty much tied in sets with HBox and Leffen and was losing in sets to Mango (by 4 I believe) is too much. He didn't do that well. 2015? sure make that call? not 2016 though.
ps. Leffen was barred from most major tournaments in 2016. If he weren't, I guarantee several tournaments would look vastly different.
They finally said it "the only God"
To me, the name god is given to those who can win majors. and all 5 (including leffen)
Have been able to do that these past years. The demi-gods are getting close but none of them have won a major yet. Plup so far is the closest with armada being the only god he needs to beat left.
The god Armada
of the temple of Aššur, my lord
Hey, cool video. Very minor point: it would be awesome if you look at the camera a little more, I think it would make these vids even better!
In the year 20XX, everyone plays Peach
Armada is beyond the other gods now. You simply can't debate his supremacy anymore.
To be honest, I don't think a Melee player can play this game for longer than an athlete can play any other sport. I really worry that carpal tunnel is going to limit the length of all the Melee gods' careers to a decade or two at most.
what kind of jacket is that
2:11 "You can read about it. I'm not going to list it out." Why not? There are lists at 0:11, 0:53, 1:33, 1:44. If the viewer has enjoyed the video up until this point, why not continue in the same fashion?
We must summon Isai the Grand Master!
I don't care for arbitrary tags, but if the point of labeling him as the only god is to say that he's a level above the rest, then yeah, that's undoubtedly true.
2011) Number 1 in the world
2012) Number 1 in the world
2013) Retires, still number 2
2014) Returns from retirement, still number 2
2015) Number 1 in the world
2016) Number 1 in the world
I don't think Armada is the only God, in terms of legacy I do think him and Mango are definitely ahead in their upper tier however, of which Armada sits on the throne.
You forgot about Borp.
Armada is the best god. He is the best right now, and is the best of all time in Melee. He doesn't get the credit he deserves.
"People will say, he has had close sets with mew2king,"
WHAT TE FACK YAYSON
I like the TSM guy and Mango :) haven't seen many interviews with this guy tho
Armada is the Tom Brady of Melee.
I'd call him Champion of the Gods, he's like a Zeus or something
I think M2K is the best player... When he's on his game.
Idk debatably m2k losing to s2j would be huge cuz m2k doesn't lose to falcon. I'd say m2k is, THE god. Think about it, m2k is the master of the marth ditto, master at the sheik ditto, and master of the falcon match up. Aswell he controls FD, he usually gets one game on FD free. And known as the spacies slayer. He has the best marth and best sheik to date. I'd say m2k is the God.
It makes me laugh when people say ppmd has a better marth than m2k. M2k still has a very postitive record vs ppmd in the marth ditto. And is the most graceful marth when it comes to chaingrabs, combos, and he's even giving armada a run for his money as of lately. I think what made ppmds marth good was ppmds fundamentals, not marth itself.
esports show where they cover a children's party game. my god.
PhantomNobu and yet, here we both are
What is this song???
And he just won summit
I practice Scandinavian Monotheism
Armada literally lookslike The Amazing Atheist with weight loss and a trim lol
Armada is only player to 3peat a major and he's done it for two!
